    Unhappy hard time finding job as new grad!!

    i understand the economy is not good right know, but i am having the worst time right know looking for a job everyone wants at least one year experience. didnt think it would be this hard feeling very discouraged, although im blessed to have a job but just anxious to start new career as a nurse .

    I am having the same issue. I went into QA right when I passed my NCLEX and that was the biggest mistake I made. Everyone wants at least 6 months experience with most wanting a year. I guess we cant just give up..

    Yea had to take a job at a nursing home so bad manor care didn't want it. Worked in that hole for six months before I found a better one. That's usualy why happens in my area all the new grads go to the crappy job out in the time and escape to something better

    It's really hard but I suggest that you took extra effort especially in months of retirement like March and April. This would open more slots foe new comers.a

    Cool Re: hard time finding job as new grad!!

    You might have to widen your search area to find a job. Just don't give up. You will find something eventually.
